Nic Beets

Speaker

Clinical psychologist at the CoupleWork & Brain Injury Association, Auckland. He also trained and worked as a Family Therapist at the Leslie Centre. After serving his internship at Segar House (a group therapy setting), he worked for the Home & Family Society where, in addition to his therapy caseload, he and Verity, his partner, ran couple’s groups. He began in private practice in 1996 working 3 days a week and looking after the kids 2 days a week. Perhaps as a result of a series of bad accidents he had as a child, Nic developed a speciality in rehabilitation following brain injury and spent over ten years working in this area. He has written and presented in this field and, although no longer seeing ABI clients, continues to supervise a number of other psychologists working in the area. He also provides supervision for other helping professionals. His current professional passion is relationship therapy and sexuality. He likes to make things happen and has initiated and facilitated professional interest groups in both these areas. Extract from : http://www.couplework.co.nz/about_us.htm
